069 Breaking the Secret in the Child's Mouth

The rain stopped after delaying. It was already the morning of the next day, and Hang Seng was still in a coma. "Sir Zou Zhou opened the door and I'm here to bring you medicine."

It was Wan'er's voice, so I hurried out to open the door. I saw Wan'er wearing a raincoat with an umbrella tied around her waist and holding a brown yellow paper bag wrapped in plastic film in both hands.

I reached out to catch it, and felt that the thing in my palm was still warm. "Wan'er, what's the antidote?"

Wan'er looked around anxiously and stepped forward to approach Zou Zhou's ears, "This is the medicine that Sister Manzhu specially prepared overnight after hearing about Hang Seng's condition. I just had half a bucket of water and didn't know the specific effect. However, Sister Manzhu said that if you take it three times a day and bask in the sun properly, you should be able to get completely cured in less than three days."

Wan'er spoke as usual, but it seemed a bit mysterious to me, but it was not easy for me to show it. She smiled and said thank you for watching Wan'er ride on the horse and turned back to Hang Seng's room.

Xie Bi'an went to the toilet and when he came back, he found that Zou Zhou had just stepped into the room. After entering the door, he asked, "Why did I hear Wan'er's voice just now? Is there anything wrong with Manzhu?"

I picked up the medicine bag and showed it to Xiaobai, and said Wan'er's original words to Xiaobai. This guy was not surprised at all, but said that I was stupid and asked me to be 100% concerned about the medicine made by Manzhu.

It’s not that I’m stingy or distrustful of Manzhu. Is the medicine made by just knowing that the disease can really be 100% effective?

I didn't sleep well at night, and I was so sleepy now that I could doze off even when I walked to the bed with a water cup.

Fortunately, Xiaobai helped me, and I was fine even though the water cup fell.

"You have been taking care of Hang Seng for almost a whole day. Now you should hurry up and give me the rest." When Xie Bi'an was serious, his eyes were warm in the sun.

"I'm quite sleepy, but now Dahei has been out for so long and hasn't come back yet. Hang Seng's condition has not improved. I really can't sleep."

Xie Bi'an grabbed Zou Zhou's hair, pinched her face with his right hand, lowered his head and said, "Listen to me, go back to the room to sleep now, don't force me to do anything?"

The look that Xiaobai gave me was not like a joke, and the smile seemed to hide a knife, which made me sweat flow out. I reluctantly nodded in agreement, and led Qingyang to return to the room together, and when I was on the bed, the moment I closed my eyes, it seemed that the whole world had turned into darkness.

As soon as Zou Zhou left, Xie Bi'an collapsed on the recliner, and his eyes became empty when he watched Hang Seng's eyes become empty.

He was determined to go out and have a look, but he couldn't let go of Zou Zhou and Hang Seng. Xie Bi'an could only pretend to be strong in front of Zou Zhou, pretending that everything would be better by himself. He was so anxious and helpless that he could only understand how deeply he felt.

"No, I still can't just sit down and do nothing."

Xie Bi'an gritted his teeth, watched Hengsheng stand firmly, walked to the door, hesitated for three seconds, and finally closed the door and walked out of the Palace of Impermanence with great strides.

Fan Wujiu's words are just a summary of a story. Although Xie Bi'an understood the main line, he didn't know any details he wanted to know, which made him feel anxious.

Now Xie Bi'an came to the vegetable market entirely with his experience and feelings of catching ghosts.

It's still early now, and the vegetable market is in full swing.

Xie Bi'an went to every place where Hang Seng had visited before and asked the vendor's owner one by one if something had happened recently.

The various ghosts asked from beginning to end were almost shook their heads or said they didn't know. Xie Bi'an felt very powerless. He clearly felt that the answer was not far ahead, but he didn't know the specific location.

As he approached the edge of the trough of disappointment, Xie Bi'an walked to the corner with a little dejected look. A stall buying fruits and vegetables, and the one who saw the stall was just a child less than 1.5 meters away.

Xie Bi'an had already approached, and after thinking about it, he asked: "Child, do you know if anything happened in the market last evening?"

The child was squatting and playing with a rotten nectarine. After hearing the sound, he raised his head and stared at Xie Bi'an's face for a long time. Then he kicked the corner of the nectarine away and walked to the front of the stranger. "Yes, yesterday a group of bullies beat a weak guy."

Xie Bi'an was happy, and took the child's hand and stepped over various fruits and vegetables in different seasons placed on the short shelf, and walked to a hidden place.

"At first glance, you know that your child is very clever. Brother, I am a specialist in catching bad guys. I heard something happened here yesterday. Today I am here to investigate. Can you tell my brother everything you know?"

The little guy grinned and stretched out his hand: "How do you want to thank me, big brother?"

Xie Bi'an searched his body and found a coin and a marble that Qingyang often played with. "I'll give it to you, just talk about it."

The child quickly took the things from Xie Bi'an's hand and put them in his pocket. He crossed his hands, raised his head and looked at Xie Bi'an seriously: "I know that group of bullies. I heard from my parents that they like to sneak into the world, dig graves, and steal the burial objects inside. Now the world is not the same as before. It seems that they don't need coffins or burials, so they steal the ashes and sell them to various meat dealers at a high price."

Xie Bi'an was surprised and confused when he heard this, and made a stop sign: "What do the meat dealer needs the ashes of dead people for?"

The child rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue at Xie Bi'an: "Why don't you even know this? Now he is sending ashes to keep our remaining souls for a longer time and can reincarnate in advance, but he can't just take action, so he has to mix them into the meat we usually eat." The child waved to Xie Bi'an, signaling him to bend down and lower his head, and whispered: "I know the meat that is selling ashes in the market now. You must not reveal it, otherwise I will say you abduct children."

Xie Bi'an nodded in surprise.

The child continued, "At that time, those who bought and sold things were frightened and ran away. I was squeezed to the bottom of a wooden table. I heard one of the bullies shouting, "I finally found you a stinky hammer that crawled out of the coffin." Not long after, a man in black appeared, and he beat the bully to the point of falling water and left with the weak and stupid chicken."

After saying that, the child spread his hands: "I'm done, do you want to give me some thanks?" The child looked at Xie Bi'an.

Xie Bi'an was half clear and half confused, and did not hear the child finally asking for something from him. He turned his head and walked away with questions.

Back at the gate of the Wuchang Palace, Xie Bi'an did not enter the door immediately. He sat on the threshold, thinking about what Zou Zhou said to him before that he felt strange to Hang Seng. The more he thought about it, the more he felt he was careless. Slowly, he leaned against the door, and before he could find that the door was opening little by little, Zou Zhou behind the door had already bent down to stare at him.

"Hey! Xiaobai, while I'm sleeping, you don't care where Hang Seng will run?"

Seeing Xiaobai being shocked, those who didn't know thought he was a thief who was about to sneak in.

Xie Bi'an covered his little heart and pressed Zou Zhou to sit beside him: "Why are you awake?"

I touched his forehead, and the temperature was quite normal: "Don't ask anything irrelevant, just tell me where you are."

Xie Bi'an turned his head and looked forward, and pointed casually: "Where did you go?"

"If you want me to believe you, look in my eyes and repeat what I said just now." Xiaobai's eyes were obviously problematic.

"Okay OK, OK, I went to the vegetable market and learned something about Hang Seng."

I knew this was the case.

"Xiaobai, you continue to say that I can't not want to know."

Xie Bi'an turned his head and looked helplessly at Zou Zhou's look that I must know that it was impossible, and he had surrendered.

"I heard about it from a little broken child. I don't know how credible it is. Hang Seng doesn't seem to be an ordinary wanderer who comes out to find his beloved woman, he..."

The door suddenly creaked, and Xie Bi'an immediately shut up.

My heart was beating, and subconsciously we grabbed Xiaobai's hand. After confirming our eyes, we turned our heads together.

What I saw was Hang Seng's pale face, staring at us with deep sinking eyes. Because it was Hang Seng, I didn't scream.

"Zou Zhou, Xie Bi'an, thank you for taking care of me."

I believe Xiaobai is just like me who is incredible that Hang Seng can come here from the backyard.

Xiaobai pulled me up and secretly pinched my little finger. Seeing him answering Hang Seng's words with a smile, I forced myself to smile.

"My illness is much better now, and I will cause more trouble to you if I continue to stay. I originally wanted to wait for Fan Wu to come back and say goodbye to you one by one before leaving. Now, depending on the situation, I am really embarrassed to stay. I hope you will express your gratitude to Fan Wuji for me. One day, I will come to thank you."

Hang Seng's voice came out of his throat, and Xiaobai and I couldn't tell at all that it was good.

"Hengseng, don't do this. This is the wind here. If you have any questions, it's not too late to wait until we help you back to your room."

Xiaobai supported Hang Seng back to his room with compulsiveness. When it was time to take medicine again, I quickly poured a cup of warm water, held the tea-like medicine in the palm of my hand, and handed it to Hang Seng along with the water.

"Look at what you are now, don't say you are walking anymore, you are angry even if you say a few words. We are absolutely worried about letting you leave now."

I expressed my thoughts and hoped that Hang Seng would listen and give up the idea of ​​leaving.

Xiaobai and I were persuading me, when a loud voice came from outside the door, but Jiuling was following behind me.

I got up and brought a chair and placed it next to Jiuling. I was about to ask why I suddenly came here, Da Hei glanced at me with a cold look and let me swallow my words.
